MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The Milwaukee Brewers have announced a new policy for bags at Miller Park.

Beginning with the first game of the 2020 Season, only single-compartment (i.e. tote) bags, purses, clutch purses, soft-sided cooler bags, clear bags, drawstring bags, diaper bags and medically-necessary items will be allowed into Miller Park (maximum size of 16”x16”x8”).

With the new policy, fans may continue to enter Miller Park with single-compartment (tote) bags, soft-sided coolers and clear bags without obscured interior pockets.

Multi-compartment backpacks, bags and purses will no longer be permitted. Backpacks purchased inside the ballpark will be permitted on the date of purchase only.

The announcement is being made now in order to prepare for the pending change. In addition, the Brewers have been asking fans to consider leaving bags at home this season to help ease the transition to the new policy.
